[QUOTE="basebalz13, post: 6806142, member: 580498"] You will be fine with CCA. Just run more than one run. Avg CCA at 18 foot is 250 amps, Avg OFC at 18 foo is 300 amps. RMS = Voltage x Current 250 x 14.4 = 3600 300 x 14.4 = 4320 Net diff of 720 watts. Im sure he isnt going to run a single run of 1/0 to power more than 4,000watts to the amp. Specially since the run going from the rear battery to the amp might be all of 3 foot. Also any big amp over 4000RMS has DUAL 1/0 inputs. [/QUOTE]
